Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The Samuel Peto (JD Wetherspoon)

Very imposing former Baptist chapel, well converted by Wetherspoon into a two-storey pub / restaurant with a decent gallery on three sides. Mix of seating, with a good number of booths on both levels. Lots to look at, wherever you are sat, with a particularly notable ceiling. On this visit, the standard Ruddles, Doom Bar and Abbot were supplemented on the two banks of five handpumps by Flack's Romsey Gold and a pair of festival beers: Lion Mango IPA and Dressed to Impress from Oakham (£2.40).

Stunning building - a converted church, that is nicely lit up externally at night. Bouncers on the door on a saturday night and it was very busy and for a venue with no entertainment options other than one armed bandits, very lively. What's better than people watching on a Saturday night with top quality Jaipur for £2.29 a pint.

As well described below this is a grand old building but was let down by a dull beer choice with the only possible item of interest being Westerham East India Pale. As I was eating which included a drink I had the Devils Backbone IPA.
The grand building is wasted on me if the beer choice is rubbish as it was here.
